McLaren Time...Just in the Nick of Time

04-07-2018, 10:42 PM

You can already see a difference in attitude by the players. McClaren is a serious manager who’s organized and directed to move QPR to a whole new level, with or without big new signings. I liked Ollie as a motivator, but he was lost when it came to tactical smarts and formational consistency. Give this team another solid defender and seasoned striker, and I think you’ll see a real contender emerge. This may not be our year, but I assure you it’s going to prove to be far better than the last one. Go you Rrrrrs!

In what way can you see a different attitude mate ? A ball hasn`t been kicked yet or am i missing something ?

Its all about results, if McClaren comes out wins games and has a better league standing than Holloway then it was the right decision.... If we loss and finish on less points then I am afraid this forum will be calling for McClaren's head. So interviews, hills or Maniquins it doesn't make a McClaren a better manager! RESULTS DO

I'll wait til the first 10-15 games are done before making a judgment. If we lose most of those this board will be as toxic as it was towards Holloway.

I'm kinda the same but even if we lose most of those I will still be OK as long as I can see that there is some improvement and that we are learning from our mistakes. The trouble with Olly was that he would persist with things that weren't working and when we did take a step forwards he would just change it all again. It usually takes time to find the right formula and I'm prepared to give Shteve some leeway, as I would any manager new to the club/team.

We are two players away (striker and defender) from what could be a very interesting season. The difference is we have skill and smarts in the managerial position now; think Steve will find ways to mature the young and motivate the old.

Think we need more than a striker and one defender personally but can't deny that it'll be an interesting season for a number of reasons.

I think these type of posts just anger those of us who liked Ollie. We can't see any difference yet because we haven't played. Give it time, and the change may be an inspired piece of business, but please don't overhype things before they have occurred

Well said, outrageous post when we have`nt even kicked a ball yet!

And we`ll see if Mclarens as great as loads have said on here, yet proof in silverwares not exactly outshinning Holloways cupboard.
